I have declared my candidacy for US Congress,
to represent the Great State of Oklahoma.
Dateline: Tuesday June 22 (Day 945)
Location: Muskogee, Oklahoma
Reporter: George Armstrong "F-Bomb" Custer
This is an exact republish of the article I posted shortly after reset today, June 22, just to get it back on the first page of Latest News. A fresh New Article will be posted on Wednesday June 23.

The United States Workers Party has shown such confidence in me to back my campaign, and for this I am grateful. I joined the old USWP when I started playing eRep in early 2009 and am very happy to renew my association with them now under new leadership and vision.
USWP not withstanding, I am the founder and proud member of the American Military Party. The AMP is dedicated to seeking and securing proper representation of our US Military Soldiers' interests in government. One way to do this is to get more Soldiers elected to Congress and appointed to Cabinet positions.
I am proud to lead this effort, carrying the banners of not only the AMP and USWP but the historic flags of all our US Military branches as well.

Oklahoma is not a "fortress state" and as such is lightly populated.
I'm told that the way to campaign and win in such a state is to "mobilize my motor voters," i.e., all my buddies and connections. Well, having served eleven months in the USArmy I like to think I have a thousand or so close buddies.
Headed out with the boys for a day at the beach.
Okay... seriously.. I'm working on getting the URL of a page listing all Oklahoma residents-- if that materializes I'll write to as many of them as I can. But I'd wager civilians living in Oklahoma don't know me, I don't expect my reputation will carry much with them.
I do understand that US Soldiers are residents of Karnataka, and voting anywhere else will require a couple Moving Tickets and then some Gifts to restore Wellness lost to the double move.
I also understand that candidates and their Political Parties often spring for these things in order to get votes.
Well, I'm a guest of the USWP for this election and not included in their discretionary budget, and my own AMP is broke... so moving tickets and gifts are not gonna happen.
They do NOT make stewardesses like that anymore..
But I'll tell you what... I have never-- not once in fourteen months of voting-- ever accepted any sort of compensation for my vote. If I have to travel because I choose to support a candidate outside the fortress state I'm assigned to, that's my own cost to cover.
Simple ethics and civil responsibility sometimes come at a personal cost.

Real quick, lemme give a little update.
It was not my time to go.
Couple days ago I asked friends to help me get well...
Within a few hours of publication I had received enough Gifts and Gold for Wellness Packs to restore my Wellness to over 95%. I also got a stack of Food and extra Gifts, plus a Q1 House. Plus I got to choose from a few great job offers.
Again, THANK YOU to my friends who pulled me from the grave and put me back in the game.

Let's call this good enough for now... Tuesday the 22nd.
I'll try to publish something each day through Election Day.
Let's see if we can give Bvt. Maj. Gen. Lt. Col. G. A. Custer a clear victory on June 25th.

Welcome back.
Good luck my friend
Senator Custer has a nice ring to it!
07 sir, at your service.
Can't wait to run against you, good luck sir.
Also, the citizens list thing is under "Rankings". You can find your way from there. 🙂
Good luck to all the great candidates in oklahoma. Also this was a very well written platform.
seriously, Dave, they told me I'd be assigned to a cakewalk for my first run-- guess they were wrong! you are a smart and experienced player, and America will be the real winner in our contest.
and, JDR, this was more in the way of an introduction and announcement.. I figure to throw a little substance in the final days, so please do tune in again tomorrow.
